What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
5'-Hydroxy-6, 7, 8, 3', 4'-pentamethoxyflavone (5-HPF), a polymethoxyflavone compound found in dikamali gum, has been shown to exert a range of beneficial effects on health. We have previously reported that 5-HPF improves the cholinergic dysfunction and also possesses antioxidant properties in Caenorhabditis elegans. In this study, we have identified the effect of 5-HPF on the worm lifespan and its underlying molecular mechanisms. Out of the five tested pharmacological doses of 5-HPF, viz. 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, and 100 μM, the 50 μM dose maximally extended the mean life of C. elegans by 28%. The present study revealed that 5-HPF supplementation leads to dietary restriction (DR)-like effects in the worms without altering bacterial metabolism. The analysis of mutant animals fed with 5-HPF suggested that the extended lifespan of C. elegans depends upon multiple DR-related signaling pathways, with NRF2 and FOXA being critical factors. Further investigation into the mechanistic aspects indicated that 5-HPF utilizes autophagy pathway induced by DR through the upregulation of autophagy genes bec-1 and lgg-1, evident from the increase in autophagic puncta in the seam cells of lgg-1::gfp tagged worms. This study identifies the longevity-promoting activity of 5-HPF in C. elegans regulated by oxidative stress-resistance genes and DR-induced autophagy pathway.
